First Solar Inc of Tempe, AZ, USA, which makes thin-film photovoltaic modules based on cadmium telluride (CdTe) as well as providing engineering, procurement & construction (EPC) services, and the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) have announced First Solar (Nasdaq: FSLR) has signed an agreement with Strata Solar for the procurement of an incremental 400 megawatts (MW)DC of First Solar’s advanced thin film photovoltaic modules, with delivery expected from 2017 into 2018. With this agreement There are three main areas of solar technology: crystalline types are suitable for colder temperatures at high latitudes, thin film types and concentrating solar technology. The largest market for photovoltaics is for large scale utility systems connected Upon completion, Luz del Norte will generate power using 1.7 million of First Solar's high energy yield thin film photovoltaic modules. First Solar's advanced PV modules have set the industry benchmark with over 10GW installed worldwide and having recently The pluses of thin-film technology include not just diversity but also improved ertex solartechnik has joined forces with specialists from the architecture, glass and PV industries to develop modules that are novel in terms of their looks. Luz del Norte will consist of 1.7m of First Solar's high energy yield thin film PV modules First Solar Chile country manager Cristian Sjogren said: “Luz del Norte harnesses one of the region’s richest resources, allowing Chile to reduce dependence on .

Southern Power's eighth solar acquisition in California, the Morelos del Sol Solar Facility will be located on 138 acres and is expected to consist of 111,744 thin-film photovoltaic (PV) solar modules mounted on single-axis trackers. Located in Kern County The sun radiates about ten thousand times the amount of energy our planet needs. So naturally, the way to harness this energy is a top priority in the scientific community. Thin-film photovoltaics now account for 12% of solar installation around the world. A new Silicon Valley developer of thin film solar PV modules, backed by an Australian venture capitalist, has claimed an engineering breakthrough that could cut the manufacturing costs of PV modules by one third.
